Descripci�n

Print on Demand. This book delves into the critical issue of coal depletion in Britain, exploring its far-reaching implications for the nation's industrial, economic, and social landscape. Written during a time of unprecedented industrial expansion fueled by coal, the author challenges the prevailing optimism of endless progress. The book meticulously examines geological data, population trends, and industrial growth patterns to construct a compelling argument about the finite nature of Britain's coal reserves. It delves into the historical context of coal's role in shaping Britain's economic dominance and explores potential consequences of its depletion, including shifts in global industrial power, economic challenges, and social adjustments. The author's insights extend beyond mere statistical analysis, delving into the ethical and social responsibilities associated with resource management. The book prompts reflection on intergenerational equity, urging readers to consider the long-term impacts of current practices on future generations. It advocates for proactive measures, such as debt reduction, investment in education, and responsible resource utilization, to ensure a sustainable future. In essence, this book serves as a wake-up call, urging a shift from short-sighted complacency to long-term strategic planning in the face of inevitable resource constraints. Its analysis of the coal question remains relevant, offering valuable lessons for navigating the complexities of resource management and sustainable development in an era of increasing environmental consciousness. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book.

The extent to which the argument advanced by Jevons, in reference to the exhaustibility of British coal resources, has been misunderstood, is surprising in view of the care which he took to make his position clear. The Royal Commissions appointed in 1866 and in 1901 to investigate the question, in spite Of the careful study which each Of them gave to the important issues involved, both shared the.
